The situation in Ukraine is unavoidable. There really isn't much that can be said other than that this is a disgusting show of illegal force against a soverign nation. But that is undeniable. What about video games though?
There are many Ukrainian video games that exist. The most notable of these is S.T.A.L.K.E.R. In STALKER, you are a bounty hunter in the Pripyat excusion zone around Chernobyl who goes on missions ranging from finding scraps to sell for cash to big shootouts between rival factions in the wastelands. A sequel was in production but has been haulted since the developers have gone off to serve. I wish them well on the fronts. The game service Itch.io sold a bundle of nearly one thousand games for a minimum price of $10 with all proceeds going to Ukraine. I think this is a great way to have video game enjoyers interact with the world and help a good cause. I think that these services like Itch.io and Humble Bundle should promote themselves more so that way they can give people enthralling digital experiences while also helping those in need like the Ukrainians in this time of unprecedented strife.
